Right-wing nutcases speak out on health care. A subject they clearly know nothing about.

[unapatriciated]

1. Get a Job! Get a Job!

they yelled the same thing in the 60's and at every peace rally I have attended since then. They added Dirty Hippie. What they fail to recognize is most of us have jobs (good ones with benefits) and are willing to support others like them (medicare) so that our society as a whole is healthier.
Same talking points, they were wrong then and they are still wrong now.

4. I know that some of them are elderly but..

who are they to be telling anyone to get a job, what in the hell are they doing there..

[unapatriciated]

9. especially since a lot of us have jobs..

and those that don't are because of the economy and outsourcing.
Universal Health Care would create jobs, they just don't take the time to actually research it.
Most would rather keep putting money into the pockets of the Insurance CEO's instead of investing in their fellow man and country.
That's what eight years of bush did to our country, he didn't just bankrupt us financially but morally as well.
Bush was raised by a woman who was void of empathy.

2. Unbelievable. Like watching a train wreck, I guess. I watch in stuptified horror.

7. WERE THESE PAID ACTORS?

I can not believe that any sane person, can't see that
"for profit" health care, is a very destructive and
expensive con-job. Of course, the CEO's who are
"paid" millions of dollars a year are a drain on
health care. How can REAL people not put people before
profits? The "bureaucrat" that they claim will come
between you and your doctor, is currently a person whose only
purpose is to make sure that the insurance companies make as
much profit as possible. How do they do that? By denying care
to people. It's all (insurance of all types) a ponzi scheme.
Insurance, by definition is legalized gambling. When you
gamble with people's lives that should be illegal. How could
these "protesters" not be paid actors? Any sane
person knows that everyone should be guaranteed the best care
available. That fellows "U.S.S. Constitution need to be
re-rigged, to include health-care as a basic human right.

3. "I got a book here it's call the USS Constitution"

"I've read this thing 3 times"...and sailed on it once.

8. A subject they clearly know nothing about?

One subject among a myriad others, friend. Clearly they know nothing about socialism, communism, Marxism, or Nazism either. The only subjects in which they appear conversant are spewing nonsense at high decibel levels, and making general nuisances of themselves.
